The beer will also be available beginning on Saturday at the Armsby Abbey (144 North Main St., Worcester) and the Dive Bar (34 Green St., Worcester) and the Sunset Bar & Grill (130 Brighton Ave., Allston).

Hoponius Black will also be on draft at the Jack’s Abby Beer Hall (100 Clinton St., Framingham), until its gone.

In other special release beer news, the Harpoon Brewery will hold a Pink Boots Society Night at their beer hall, 306 Northern Ave., Boston, on April 5 from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.

The Pink Boots Society is a national organization that provides education and classes for female brewers and other women in the beer industry.

Earlier this month, female brewers from the Harpoon Brewery teamed up with brewers from the Boston Beer Company (Samuel Adams), Cambridge Brewing Company, Drop-in Brewing Company (Vermont) and Switchback Brewing Company (Vermont), to brew a beer as part of Big Boots Brew Day.

Tickets for the event are $10, which will get people a pint of the Pink Boots Society Beer and a raffle ticket. A portion of all sales will go to the scholarship fund of the Pink Boots Society, which encourages women in the beer industry through education.

Tickets are available at http://harpoonpinkbootssociety.splashthat.com/web.

Also from Harpoon is the release of the latest entry in its UFO line of beers – UFO Huckleberry.

UFO (unfiltered wheat offering) Huckleberry is described as tasting like “blueberry, but better.”

The UFO Huckleberry will be a summer seasonal, joining the other UFO beers such as UFO Raspberry and UFO White.

In addition, Harpoon has announced a rebranding for all of its UFO beers, resulting in a brand-new look for the beers on liquor store shelves. They will also launch a new website, www.ufobeer.com, dedicated to the UFO line of beers.

“Choosing a beer shouldn’t be hard,” said UFO co-founder Dan Kenary. “The less time that’s spent getting caught up in the details, the more time there is to actually enjoy the beer. That’s a big reason we started brewing UFO beers. There’s a great history, tradition and craft behind these beers, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be uncomplicated and easy to drink.”

And finally, a little news from Smuttynose Brewing Company of Hampton, New Hampshire. They have announced that Rhye IPA, which began as a special release in its popular Big Beer Series, will now be a year-round beer, available in six- and 12-packs of 12-ounce bottles.

“We were overwhelmed by the response to Rhye IPA when we first introduced it in our Big Beer Series,” said Smuttynose founder Peter Egelston. “We added it to the seasonal rotation, but consumers, wholesalers and retailers alike still asked about it, so making it a full-time offering seemed like an obvious next step.”
